Sols 4316-4317: Seeking for Sulfur

.Navigating the durable, harsh Martian terrain is actually constantly an obstacle, and also our current effort to connect with the "Sheep Spring" aim at highlights this. Our company had actually gone for small, far-off brilliant stones, but coming from 50 meters away (regarding 164 feet), the restricted settlement of our pictures created it tough to tweak navigation. After an eager drive, the vagabond came uncomfortably close-- stopping just except these tiny bright stones. The stones, along with their distinct rounded as well as pitted "weathering" pattern (imagined), firmly appear like elemental sulfur blocks out that our team have actually faced just before. Frustratingly, although the intended stones corrected under the frontal tire and accurately noticeable in our navigation electronic cameras, they remained just out of reach of the wanderer's arm.
